The internet has increased the scope for radically rethinking and reducing the cost of architectural design by allowing for mass dissemination and collaboration.
Some of the most exciting developments provide designs for free and reinvent the concept of what it is to build a house:
Dominic Stevens (Irishvernacular) includes a 3 bedroom self-build house design for €25,000, while Wikihouse has a self-build house for €60,000.
Even if you do not follow these designs, they may give you something to think about what you really want from your house.
